Live Automation: Keeping a Cutting Edge with Ignition

Fueling Planes at America’s Eighth-Largest Airport

The Ignition project controls the entire fuel farm at the airport. The project was designed to acquire highly accurate SCADA information from the fuel farm and provide an HMI that is operator friendly. This allows the operator to easily identify and correct any issues that arise on the fuel storage and delivery system.

Power Plants Get Data to Central Agency via Ignition

The Control Center of Energy (CENACE) is responsible for coordinating the power system’s operations in terms of security, quality and economy. As a result, CENACE requires information from all plants of energy generation for coordination, monitoring and real-time control of the National Interconnected System. To fulfill the purpose of transmitting information to CENACE, the Electric SCADA Project For the Thermal Power Plant of Manta was developed.

System-wide SCADA Migration Brings Greater Capabilities and Lower Costs

Brown Engineers replaced CAW’s obsolete, clunky and expensive SCADA system with a secure, future-proofed, Ignition-based system that has two master control points and allows full use of all operational data collected.
